I have a few questions.1/ Can NPCs use warp drives now? Have they been updated?2/ What is the largest ship NPC's can fly?3/ How hard would it be to get into the game and start producing jump gates?4/ Could I use bots to do so?5/ What happens if I accidentally warp drive to a system that has no gates? (or is that simply not possible?)

Bots are not allowed. We can use NPC to haul mats to the system, if it is already connected by gates. Then we can easily fill the gate from an in system OSB or colony.

You can Jump through a gate and the other side is not finished, so you could not get back without a hyperdrive. If this ever happens, you go to the Map page and Emergency Jump. This will bring you to the Ceres SS. You can then fly to where you need to go.

AscentExtras.com has multiple links to information and tools. Charts.AscentExtras.com has a lot of open asteroid fields already charted along with tens of thousands if planets sampled and logged.

Hope that helps a little. If you can not get answers in chat, feel free to ask anything here. Many of us check the forums often and can answer. We don't mind. We know there is a lot to learn. It looks like a simple game, but when you start exploring and developing, you find there is a massive depth to play. Lots to learn and remember. I fall short on that remember thing.

I hope you will come to enjoy it as I have. Peace.
